Bombs and Blessings

After three days of intense commentary and speculation in the media worldwide about the bomb discovered in a cargo plane en route to the States, the story dominates the headlines still usually in a negative, fear-provoking way.

It is a great opportunity to strip away the illusion of […]

Melinda and Bill Gates - an Example in Philanthropy

In these times of concerns about defence, economics, terrorism and cyber threats, it was heartening to hear Melinda Gates, wife of Microsoft's Bill Gates, talking about the work that she and her husband do to help the poor in the most deprived parts of the world. They have made billions of dollars, but want as […]
